Hi!
I did mention this on an other thread but it seems to be the right place to post it. So please suffer me to say it again.
My first bike was a Super Glide in the seventies. Back then, i liked to think that she has a soul.
So once i asked what her name was as i was kickstarting her. Then beleive it or not she said '' potchock '

Someone once told me its because their is a special relationship between a rider and his bike. Same with a driver and their car. If thats the case I should name my favorite rifle or my smoker, or even my cast iron skillet I inherited from my mother!
Again, to each his own...

My first Harley, 2014 FLS was named "Blanche" (from Streetcar Named Desire). My buddy followed suit by naming his RK "Frances"
My SGS is "Smokee"; the wife has "Jewel" and Mysterious (sporty and Tri-glide). Thinking my new bike (this summer) is going to be "Eunice".
